Scientists Develop A Graphene-Based Battery That Charges 5 Times Faster

The Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology (SAIT) recently announced the successful synthesization of a unique battery material which could be the breakthrough in battery technology that many have been waiting for. Made from graphene – a 2D-matter that has long been heralded as a wonder material because of its extraordinary properties that hold the potential to revolutionize different industries including electronics, transportation, medicine and energy storage – the new synthesised material, named by the Samsung Electronics’ research arm as “graphene ball”, could potentially deliver charging speeds 5x faster than standard lithium-ion batteries and, theoretically, achieve a hundred percent charge […]
